Donald Trump didn’t always despise Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, though. His beef with the pair started in 2019 when a reporter asked Trump’s reaction to a 2016 interview in which Markle accused the former president of misogyny and said she would consider moving to Canada if he became president. His response, as expected, was classic Trump, telling The Sun: “I didn’t know that. What can I say? I didn’t know that she was nasty,” he said.
A year later, after Harry and Meghan released a video urging Americans to vote, Trump blasted the “Suits” alum once again. “I’m not a fan of hers, and I would say this — and she probably has heard that — but, I wish a lot of luck to Harry, because he’s going to need it,” he said at a press conference (via CBS News).
It’s unclear if there are deeper reasons for the beef, but their spat has escalated over time. In an interview with Piers Morgan in 2022, Trump launched another rant, branding Prince Harry as Markle’s mere puppet. “Harry is whipped like no person I think I’ve ever seen,” he declared. “I’m not a fan of Meghan… I think poor Harry is being led around by his nose.” He even went so far as to suggest the removal of their royal titles, a move he believed Queen Elizabeth should have enforced. “I think she should have said, ‘If that’s your choice fine, but you no longer have titles and frankly don’t come around,'” he added. “He has been so disrespectful to the country and I think he’s an embarrassment.”
